Geotechnical supervision may be limited to inspection, simple quality controls and a qualitative assessment of the performance of the structure. It can be also elaborated to the measurements of ground properties or the behaviour of structures, including additional measurements during each significant stage of construction. Geotechnical supervision is essential to any small to large project as this provides valuable data to the project quality control team and helps in identifying and mitigating project risks.Our expert Geologists and Geotechnical Engineers combine their skills and local knowledge to identify the suitability of onsite materials, existing subsurface soil stiffness and compaction requirements for any Cut or Fill earthwork operations and in accordance with AS3798-2007 Guidelines on Earthworks for Commercial and Residential Developments

Our earthwork investigation includes:

• Study of rock layer rippability
• Suitability of existing nearby borrow stockpile materials as General or Select Fill
• Recommendations on the suitability of various stabilisation agents e.g. lime or cement
• Additional recommendations on material blending to change the properties so as to fit specification envelopes
• Incorporate the use of geotextile and geosynthetic products to enhance and improve the Geotechnical requirements
